Default Tool to lock flywheel with engine out of car?

I have the engine out of the car. I need to remove the flywheel but I can't get the flywheel bolts out because the engine turns. The pulley bolt up front has already been loosened so I can't hold it there. There is the flywheel lock which requires the bellhousing and pressure plate to be on but it's no good to get the flywheel bolts off. Is there one that can be used with the bellhousing and pressure plate off so I can remove the flywheel bolts?

Thanks,
Mark

Bruce,
Is that one of your own tools or is that a dealer item. Perhaps this method should only be used during non winter months or anytime in temperate climates.

That engine looks great!
